BMW 6-Series - Should I buy it?

• Would snow tires/wheels on a 645 Coupe make it drivable in Chicago snow?

  Written by: Moomba on Feb 2, 2009 10:19:49 AM

  I am considering buying a used RWD 2005 bmw 645 coupe for use as my primary vehicle. I have indoor parking and would only drive it minimally in winter (20 mile commute to work comprising 7 miles on moderately plowed roads + balance on highway). I would fit it with good snow tires and smaller wheels for winter use (don't have problem storing the extra set of wheels in my apt). ... Read More

  Hey njwlog. Unfortunately, the only 2005 model that BMW is still providing lease support on is the Z4. I don't even think that BMW Financial Services will lease 2005 6-Series models any longer. If you want to lease one now, you probably would have do to so through an independent bank. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

  Hi kjwbmwm5. If you were to lease a 2006 BMW 650 Coupe through BMW Financial Services right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00285 and 59%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2005 BMW 645 Coupe should be a much more attractive .00145 and 58%. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums ... Read More

• 6 series availability

  Written by: shoes on Dec 11, 2003 11:11:27 AM

  I have been told by two dealers that there will be gouging on the initial 6 series cars. Given the teething pains BMW had with the 7 series in the first year, I would say a 2005 is the better choice. Also, at first I heard the base price would be just a little more than the 5 series, now I hear it is a little more than the 7 series ... Read More

  Other rumors suggest BMW has put the M6 idea on hold, since they're strapped for resources with all of the other models coming out in the near future. Either way, the M6 definitely won't be out next year. The M5 will appear sometime in late 2004, probably, as will the new 6 series (initially offered with the 4.5L V8 from the 745 and 545). Potentially in 2005 or 2006, they may ... Read More

  The 6 series will be a sports coupe/convertable built on the new 5 platform. BMW is adopting a new scheme for numbering the cars. All even #s will be sports coupes and odd #s will be sedan. I am hoping to buy one when my lease runs out in 2005, provided the styling is good, otherwise it may be CLK 500. Performance wise I am sure it will blow the MBs ... Read More
